Release id #25401 : Police Academy

I already had this game in the 80s but never knew what the password was. Does anyone know it? Maybe a coder can extract it from the code? Yeah it's nagging me a bit all those years!

This "game" is a fake. There is a austrospeed88 compiled part and then memory filled with stuff from another game, "Hall of the things".

These are the lines that asks for a password

8784 fort=1to80
8790 next
8791 print"{clr}{down}let's begin !!"
8810 print"{clr}{down}enter your police-security-password{down}{down}"
8852 poke56325,34
8861 open1,0
8865 print"-----------"
8879 print"{up}{up}{up}"
8884 input#1,a$
8888 t=1
8889 fort=1to1500
8896 next
8897 close1
8899 goto8810
8902 end

It's a fake input, result is not even checked and goes in loop asking another.

Strings in memory:

Halls of the Things
Neil Mottershead
Simon Brattel
Graham Stafford
